Last night Johnny and I said goodbye to our first home. It was a great starter home for our family and I am sad to leave it. Of course I did want to get a bigger home, so I am not very sure why I am so sad over this. I guess one of my friends said it best. She said it feels like you are leaving a part of you behind. It is so true. I will miss my paint on the walls which I picked out and had Johnny paint. (I tried to help but he is very particular about painting walls) I will miss my covered porch in the backyard where I sat and watched the girls play in the pool. I will miss my walk in closet where my babies would sleep when we got home from the hospital. I will miss having my best friends only a few houses away and the last minute walks to the park.
Bitter sweet moment for me. I know I will be over it in a month when we move into our new home, but for now I am just going to be a little bit sad. :(
*I have to admit that last night as we were checking the backyard for any leftover stuff, the lovely dog next door reminded me why I wanted a new house in the first place! Goodbye little devil dog!

I'm sad/excited for you :) I also want to know the color blue that you painted Lexi's room. I can't quite remember what it looked like, but I remember seeing it and thinking, "ooooooooh, I love that." Good luck with all the moving etc.
Totally understand how you feel, it was sad for me to leave our condo in Provo. Its all the memories that we associate with our home.
I am so excited for you new place.
Its going to be so weird for somebody else to live in your house.
I felt that way for quite awhile until we had been in our new house longer than our old one. Now we have more memories here and lots more to come! I want to come see your house when you move in!
